The COVID-19 outbreak negatively affected young adults' psychological well-being, increasing their stress levels and symptoms of anxiety and depression, and potentially triggering health-risk behaviors. The present study was aimed at investigating the psychological impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on alcohol abuse and drunkorexia behaviors among young adults living in Italy. Participants were 370 emerging adults (63% women, 37% men; = 21.00, = 2.96, range: 18-30) who were recruited through an online survey between November 2021 and March 2022. Participants completed measures of alcohol abuse, drunkorexia behaviors, negative life experiences, and post-traumatic symptoms related to the COVID-19 outbreak. The results showed that the emotional impact and negative life experiences associated with the pandemic predicted both alcohol abuse and drunkorexia behaviors, albeit in different ways. Specifically, the number of negative life experiences during the pandemic and the tendency to avoid COVID-19-related negative thoughts positively predicted alcohol abuse; and the presence of intrusive thoughts associated with the pandemic significantly predicted the frequency of drunkorexia behaviors. Implications for research and clinical practice are discussed.
COVID-19 疫情对年轻人的心理健康产生了负面影响，增加了他们的压力水平以及焦虑和抑郁症状，并可能引发健康风险行为。本研究旨在调查 COVID-19 大流行对意大利年轻成年人酗酒和暴食行为的心理影响。参与者为 370 名青年成年人（63%女性，37%男性； = 21.00， = 2.96，范围：18-30），他们通过 2021 年 11 月至 2022 年 3 月之间的在线调查招募而来。参与者完成了酗酒、暴食行为、负面生活经历以及与 COVID-19 爆发相关的创伤后症状的测量。结果表明，与大流行相关的情绪影响和负面生活经历预测了酗酒和暴食行为，尽管方式不同。具体来说，大流行期间的负面生活经历数量以及避免与 COVID-19 相关的负面想法的倾向与酗酒呈正相关；与大流行相关的侵入性思维的存在显著预测了暴食行为的频率。讨论了研究和临床实践的意义。
